Nice Work! Back when I was young we still had real blueprints. The paper was blue, and the lines were white. Everything was done by hand on a drawing board, and then the "Blue Print" was made from that. Look at how far the art has advanced. :clap: Dandy Dave!
Have a Fordsonful day Folks!

Fantastic work there.
Am I the only one feeling a little guilty that I have three of these thrown in the back of my shed?

Hi!

Which part list does this picture come from? I have only found low-resolution scans, this seems to be much higher quality!

Hello Kenneth
Just wondering how your NP Super project is going. Have you made a start yet? Looks like you are busy at the moment with your other Major.
Best, Adrian. :thumbs:
